Radiohead on David Bowie Tribute Album? [Updated]

July 8, 2009

**Update: Pitchfork has gotten word that Radiohead are not slated to appear on this album. It’s unclear why Mick Karn posted about such a project (too early for an announcement?), but for now it seems this isn’t happening.

The album, which also features France’s first lady Carla Bruni and Charlotte Gainsbourg, will be the follow-up to this year’s War Child: Heroes charity album. Karn’s site notes that the forthcoming Bowie tribute was due out earlier, but was postponed to February 2010 because “some of the artist’s schedules [were] not permitting an earlier release.”

I don’t have any other details at this time, but one thing is known: this will be awesome.
